Eric Zoueh Skotnes and Angelica Navarro

ANGELICA NAVARRO
Angelica “Angie” Navarro is a Mexican-American artist born in Tijuana B.C in 1986. In 1998, she relocated to Los Angeles, seeking refuge from the violence in her hometown. Navigating the challenges of a new culture and having to learn a foreign language as a teenager, she found comfort and inspiration in the world of entertainment.

After graduating high school and becoming a mother to her daughter Gia, Angelica was motivated to pursue a career in the entertainment industry. She entered through the world of scenic art, eventually joining the scenic artists' union in Hollywood. Her talent and leadership quickly propelled her to leading crews for major commercial productions and creating large-scale artwork and murals for television and film. Her work has appeared in major productions including Fast & Furious 9, Young Sheldon, Brooklyn Nine-Nine, Super Bowl Commercials and Monsters.

While building her career in film, Angie also developed a vibrant public art practice. Her murals have appeared across the United States and internationally in Colombia and New Zealand. Deeply inspired by the colorful patterns, architectural forms, and festive traditions of her Mexican heritage, her work often reinterprets these motifs in a unique trompe-l'œil embroidery style—creating the illusion of hand-stitched designs directly on walls.

Angelica continues to merge fine art with storytelling, transforming public spaces with rich cultural narratives and intricate visual texture.

ERIC SKOTNES
Eric Skotnes is a Los Angeles-based urban artist known for interconnecting disparate styles into an aesthetically integrated whole. Skotnes began writing graffiti at 11 years old, an influence that has evolved throughout his career and remains prevalent in his outdoor murals.
He studied illustration and fine art at Art Center College of Design and, through that training, is well versed in classical, figurative painting and knowledgeable about the history of art. Colliding these schoolings—one in the classroom, the other on the streets—Skotnes creates murals and works on canvas that juxtapose his wildstyle graffiti with figural renderings of classical sculptures from antiquity.
